Your Childcare Center Update

 

The Agape Childcare Center has been open since September!  Because you gave, children have been enjoying lots of different crafts and activities in the space.  Most recently, we celebrated St. Patrick’s Day, Valentine’s Day, and Mother’s Day.

It’s so special for the kids to have their own space.  Children of all ages get to spend time at the Childcare Center, anywhere from 2 months to twelve years old.  The kids really enjoy the individual attention they get from the staff and volunteers.

It’s also been fabulous for moms.  Now they can easily attend classes at Agape (which means they have a lot more options!), or if they have counseling or medical and job search appointments, it’s easier to get to those as well.  Imagine taking your baby in a stroller and your two other kids on the bus across town.  Not fun.  So much better to leave them in capable hands for a couple of hours!

Whenever the moms express that having a place to leave their kids has allowed them to make so much progress in their recovery journey, I remember how much of a blessing it is to be involved with this program.
